This is a mean old world Try live in by yourself This is a mean old world Try living in by yourself Can't get the one you love You got to try somebody else Today I've got the blues Got to pack my things and go I've got the blues baby Got to pack my things and go Can't stand no more you You've been running 'round Mister so-and-so Sometimes I wonder why, wonder why How can your love be so cold? Sometimes I wonder why baby can Tell me how can your love be so cold? Sometimes I think you don't love me Got to pack my things and go yea, I wonder why This is a mean old world Just try living by yourself This is a mean old world baby Why don't you try living in by yourself Can't get the one you love and Just have to try somebody else
